Gov. Kathy Hochul slammed on Tuesday a proposed Con Edison rate hike for New York energy users as “intolerable” — and said her office would be pushing back hard against the utility giant to stop it.
Hochul said combating the proposed uptick in energy rates, which could impact millions of customers with increases of as much as 14% of their current bills, is necessary to preserving the livelihoods of average New Yorkers.
